Job Description
You’ve outgrown traditional finance roles. You’re not here to push paper, manage headcount, or close books on time. You’re here to architect the system, then use it to scale something that matters.
Trilogy is building multiple breakthrough education businesses, from K-12 schools to EdTech platforms. Every model pushes boundaries. None of it works without a finance function that’s surgical, scalable, and smart. That’s where you come in.
This isn’t a strategy role. It’s a system ownership role. You’ll design the lean, AI-native infrastructure that makes large teams unnecessary. You’ll own tuition flows, audits, tax filings, and you’ll do it by writing decision docs, killing complexity, and scaling the system itself.
You’ll work directly with senior operators to support expansion plans, budget cycles, vendor deals, and compliance filings. Your thinking will shape the infrastructure behind bold new school models—and your decisions will ripple across how millions of students experience learning.
Apply now to architect the infrastructure behind education’s next big leap.
What you will be doing
• Designing and maintaining an AI-first finance system that supports fast-growing education businesses
• Writing Important Design Decisions that simplify and scale key finance workflows
• Reviewing Deep Dive and Improvement Plans with written coaching that sharpens logic and trains AI and humans
• Participating in high-leverage meetings on budgets, expansion, vendors, and compliance
• Ensuring finance operations—tuition, audits, tax—run seamlessly at scale
What you won’t be doing
• Managing a large team of finance staff
• Babysitting monthly close cycles or manually approving transactions
• Accepting default ERP workflows as “good enough”
• Delegating “dirty work”—this role leads by doing
• Working in a slow, stable environment—this is rapid build-and-scale mode
SVP of Finance key responsibilities

• Experience in a senior finance leadership role (SVP, CFO, or equivalent) with full ownership of all core finance functions
• Strong command of US GAAP and integrated financial statements
• Deep experience operating and improving ERP systems (NetSuite, SAP, etc.), ideally in complex, multi-entity organizations
• Led or conducted 5+ external audits with a Big 4 firm, either as the auditor or client
• Excellent written and verbal English communication skills, with the ability to engage senior leadership directly
• Located within UTC-8 to UTC+3 time zones
Nice-to-have Requirements
